It looks like someone is finally getting around to investigating the Trump Foundation. After all, the foundation was recently fined for an illegal campaign contribution to Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi. And it was also recently revealed that most of the money in the foundation comes from people with business interests with Trump. Trump himself has not given any money to the foundation since 2008. It also appears that most of the foundation's giving goes to other charities associated with people that Trump has business interests with. In addition, the foundation has used money to purchase gifts for Trump, including a 6-foot high portrait of the Donald himself, as well as improperly reporting some donations. New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman announced on Tuesday that his office has launched an inquiry into the Donald J. Trump Foundation in order to determine whether it is "complying with the laws governing charities in New York."
It is doubtful that the inquiry will have any results before election day, but you never know..
